Hm, I see. Funnily enough, I'm not really a purist when it comes to LotR (I'm not sure why), but that doesn't stop me sitting there going, "Pete, just ... why did you feel the need to do that? Why? You were doing so well..."

On a slight tangent, someone turned to me in the pub last night and said, out of the blue, "In the book, do Frodo and Sam have gay sex?" Surprisingly difficult to know what to say to that.
